About Ryan Rutley

I'm a Permaculture Consultant in Victoria, BC, Canada. I have a background in sociology and community development, which I apply to personal and social aspects of Permaculture. I'm currently in Australia on a Permaculture Internship with at Milkwood near Mudgee, NSW.

Permaculture hijacked me after a few years of dabbling in urban design. I took a 1hr Intro from Jesse Lemieux of Pacific Permaculture, and it changed the way I looked at the world. I was energized and inspired knowing that someone had already integrated the biological, ecological, and technical systems to remake our world.

I'm a consultant focusing on Permaculture at the personal level - the productive use of our homes, and directing our life energy to right livelihoods. I want to develop personal and social techniques for use in Permaculture to complement biological knowledge.
